Caused by refraction. The same effect causes a depth of water to be smaller than it really is.
When a plant responds to the earth's gravitational pull, it is called gravitropism. This phenomenon involves the growth response of plant organs, such as roots growing downward and stems growing upward, in relation to gravity.
This phenomenon is called transpiration.
When lightning appears as more than one line, it is called "forked lightning" or "branching lightning." This phenomenon occurs when the electrical discharge takes multiple paths as it travels through the atmosphere, creating a jagged appearance. Each branch represents a different path the electrical current has taken as it seeks the ground.
At the surface of the liquid the phenomenon is called evaporation. In the entire voume of the liquid the phenomenon is called vaporization.
The phenomenon is called evaporation.
Because the atmosphere contains water, and so it acts like a lens; the phenomenon is called "atmospheric lensing."
That phenomenon is called the "autokinetic effect." It occurs when a stationary light in a dark environment appears to move due to small involuntary eye movements.
A relation on your father's side of your family is called a paternal relation.
That phenomenon is called "visual compression" or "foreshortening." It occurs when the distance to a visible object appears shortened due to the angle from which it is observed, such as when viewing a hilltop from below.
A blue moon appears once every two or three years. It is an astronomical phenomenon where the moon actually colors blue. This is why it is called a 'blue moon'.

Ball lightning. It is a rare phenomenon where a small, glowing sphere appears during thunderstorms. This type of lightning is not well understood and can vary in size and color.
The shallow extension of the continent that extends beyond the shoreline is called a continental shelf. It is the submerged part of a continent that extends from the shoreline to a drop-off point called the shelf break.
The portion of the land mass that extends into the ocean is called the coastline or shoreline.
The phenomenon of sound bouncing off walls is called "reverberation."
When a plant responds to the earth's gravitational pull, it is called gravitropism. This phenomenon involves the growth response of plant organs, such as roots growing downward and stems growing upward, in relation to gravity.
A set of ordered pairs is a relation. Or Just simply "Coordinates"
